ARP applies for local links only. So you need a network you are actively talking to 1024 different hosts directly on. Furthermore all the config items should now be soft anyway. Want more, enable more. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
